Chelsea midfielder Charly Musonda is set for talks with new manager Guus Hiddink to see if he figures in his plans at Stamford Bridge, sources have told ESPN FC.
Musonda, 19, was hoping to break into the Chelsea first team after featuring in preseason, but he was unable to force his way into Jose Mourinho's first-team plans.
The highly rated youngster hinted earlier this month he could be open to a loan move in January after growing increasingly frustrated with his lack of opportunities under Mourinho.
ESPN FC has been told that Musonda now plans to talk with new interim boss Hiddink to see if he will be given more opportunities in the team and, if he is not given reassurances, he is likely to ask to move in search of regular football.
Sources said Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal and a host of European clubs are all keeping tabs on Musonda's situation and could make a move for him should the midfielder seek a move away.
However, it remains to be seen if Chelsea would consider selling Musonda on a permanent basis, with the Frenchman highly regarded at Stamford Bridge after being handed a new four-year contract last March.
